My birth certificate says, “Melissa”, although most call me Mel. Born in a small town in Wisconsin, I moved to Central Florida right before I started grade school and have been here ever since.

For as long as I can remember, I have always embraced my creative side. I took every art class possible in high school, but sadly did not pursue it further once I graduated. On the advice of a very wise woman, I decided to start college in the fall of 2007. While obtaining my first degree, I took an intro to graphic design course that really made everything click for me. I fell in love and knew I had found my direction in life! After completing my AA degree, I took a leap of faith and decided to pursue my passion for creativity by getting a second degree in Graphic Design.

Fast forward 4 years and countless hours spent on my laptop, and here I am. The road has been long and filled with many bumps along the way, but I wouldn’t change a single moment of it. My designs have matured and so have I. Along the way I have developed a passion for harmonious colors, beautiful typography, and clean design.

When I am not in front of my laptop, I enjoy spending time with my family, our adorable sheepdog, and my amazing group of friends. Other things that I really love include long bike rides, yoga, sushi dates with my boyfriend, listening to Spotify, Dunkin Donuts caramel iced coffee, live acoustic music, and sipping on the perfect glass of wine.
